Our History


The cottage has been a staple in Jesup and the surrounding area for many years. In the beginning, it was known as the Rose Cottage and many still know it by that name. It is wonderful to hear the many stories of all the couples that have been married there. In 2020 it was purchased by a new owner and renovated. In April 2023, it was purchased by us, and we are looking forward to continuing the legacy of this beautiful venue. We are adding photography to the services that we provide, as well as, web design.

-Meet our owner and photographer-

Hi, I am Kellie Shepherd.


I am new to Georgia and this beautiful area. I have family here and I'm looking forward to meeting all of you. I am a photographer from Vernal, Utah. I have seven children, three daughters-in-law, and three grandbabies. I love photography, travel, and family, and I enjoy being creative and trying new things. I have my Bachelor's degree in Web Design and Development with a minor in Communications from BYU-I. I know that the key to great photos is a smile and you being your genuine self.


One of my favorite things about photography is the people that I spend time with and get to know while I do. My goal is to make you look your best. I want a genuine smile from you.

Kellie
